Joolz Posted January 4, 2008 Author Share Posted January 4, 2008 yer internet explorer 7 killed my access instantly, i updated it yesterday, it was saying i was logged in but i couldnt access anything , from other reports there seems to be a problem with the latest IE7 update afaik the IE7 update is beta so if you have upgraded and cant stay logged in then then you'll need to go back to the last stable IE7 release Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
